Telluride Daily Snow
By Joel Gratz, Founding Meteorologist Posted 10 months ago January 11, 2024
Lots of snow on the way
Summary
We'll see snow from Thursday through Monday with feet of accumulation.
Update
On Wednesday night, the next storm moved into Colorado. but as of 3 am on Thursday morning, snowfall hasn't really arrived yet at Telluride.
On Thursday snow should pick up and I think we'll see 4-8 inches by mid-afternoon.
Friday and Saturday
These days will bring 1-4 inches of additional snow, but the big story will be the wind. Wind speeds will be fast on both days and this could cause issues with lifts and funky snow conditions.
Saturday Night to Monday Night
This part of the storm will bring intense snow and slower winds. We should see 10-20+ inches. On Sunday, rising temperatures from Saturday night could make for imperfect powder conditions. Sunday's last run and Monday could offer great snow quality with lighter winds and cooling temperatures.
Tuesday and Wednesday
Both days should be dry. Tuesday could have soft leftover powder in the morning.
The Next Storms
We could see more snow from Wednesday night through Friday, January 17-19, though this storm might miss us to the north. And after that, another storm will be possible around January 23-25.
Thanks for reading!
